Tis the season ...

... to be jolly ... fa la la la la la la la LA!



How is everyone doing?

It's starting to feel more festive around here. LS has started on her spring cleaning. Hopefully she'll have the tree up in time before Christmas, judging by the pace she's going.

Recently I had to go to the vet two weeks in a row. First, I had the runs so I had my butt poked. If that wasn't unpleasant enough, LS had the vet done a full blood test too. I had to sit there and watch my blood being drained out.

I've had quite enough when he had a biopsy done on my lump. I couldn't resist turning around to give him a good chomp. It's just too bad that he's faster than my old doc. He drew back his hands so fast before LS could even blink. I must be losing my grip.

Then the lump area where he took the tissue sample from became sore and swollen. That had LS rushing to the pharmacy for some iodine and antiseptic cream. Thankfully it's better now.

One morning a week later, LS didn't give me my breakfast. She said she's taking me out. We're eating out? No, it was another visit to the vet. This time to have scaling done. Apparently my teeth got rather dirty ever since LS put me on canned food. Now it's back to the kibbles again.

I've had quite a rough time there, didn't I?

Now all that is behind me ...

I'm going to be spending more time snoozing


Hopefully each time I wake up there'll be more gifts from Santa hee...!



Here's wishing everyone
A Happy Holidays!




We'll be going around to visit soon.

Ugh, that sounds just awful! I hope things calm down soon. I have to have my teeth cleaned in a few weeks, too. Not looking forward to it at all, especially the not eating part!

Happy holidays!

Your pal, Pip

Blessings Happy and LS...

That really sounds like a ruff...
"rough" time for both of you for 2 weeks. No wonder the tree ain't up!
Hope your lump is better and it wasn't anything!

Your CHRISTmas card is beautiful! I think you're the BEST...right in the middle where you belong ~ the center of all attention and it looks like that's where you've been. I do hope Santa has lots for you! And blesses LS too...

Lots of love ~ hugs and licks...
Crew from Mexico and Peggy, too!
May your Christmas be as wonderful as YOU! Peace, love and JOY!!!

Sweepy said...

Woof Happy!
You had a runaround! Or was it a once over? Or was it a CheckItAllUp? I don't really know except that I also hate anybody poking over me as well.

It was a tough time for a lot of furries and their keepers. Keeper has a candle burning all month in tune with her prayers for all!

Hang in there. I got your card early though and if I forgot to say ThankYou this is a good time to say it...

Thank you for being a friend!

Drooly yours,
Sweepy and my Popsy Sumo
...and also Keeper Lui

Hi, Happy -

We hope you had a Merry Christmas! Kaci and I spent Christmas together in New Hampshire so we did not get your message until we came home on Sunday (12-26).

We hope you are feeling better soon and wish you and your family a Happy New Year.

Love -

Happy New Year to you and LS!!! Hope you both had a wonderful time over the Christmas/ New Year holidays....

Uh oh.. going to the vet 2 weeks in a row is terrible! Hehehe.. good thing you tried to chomp the vet. I don't have the courage to even try it because my mom will 'kok' my head for it.. Kudos to you.
